Description

Insert pour document de sécurité, notamment pour passeport  Insert for security document, in particular for passport
L'invention concerne un insert pour passeport électronique à fonctionnement sans contact, encore appelé « inlay » en terminologie anglo-saxonne, et un passeport intégrant un tel insert, ou un autre document au format d'un livret électronique. The invention relates to an insert for electronic passport operating without contact, also called "inlay" in English terminology, and a passport incorporating such an insert, or another document in the format of an electronic booklet.
Etat de la technique State of the art
On connaît déjà des inserts pour passeports, fabriqués à partir de deux feuillets de matière synthétique (par exemple en TESLIN, NEOBOND) entre lesquels est intégré un dispositif d'identification radiofréquence (antennes imprimées ou gravées connectées à un module électronique comportant une puce). L'adhésion entre les couches synthétiques est assurée par la présence d'un adhésif. Par abus de langage, on appelle la matière synthétique utilisée, un « papier » synthétique ou semi-synthétique, bien qu'il ne contienne pas ou peu de cellulose comme le papier.  Passport inserts are already known, made from two sheets of synthetic material (for example TESLIN, NEOBOND) between which is integrated a radio frequency identification device (printed or engraved antennas connected to an electronic module comprising a chip). The adhesion between the synthetic layers is ensured by the presence of an adhesive. By abuse of language, the synthetic material used is called a synthetic or semi-synthetic "paper", although it contains little or no cellulose like paper.
Ce « papier » synthétique confère les propriétés nécessaires aux inserts: aptitude au collage, imprimabilité, opacité, résistance à la déchirure, cohésion d'assemblage, protection du dispositif électronique pour garantir la fiabilité et la durabilité du passeport pendant toute sa durée de vie.  This synthetic "paper" gives the necessary properties to the inserts: bonding ability, printability, opacity, tear resistance, assembly cohesion, protection of the electronic device to ensure the reliability and durability of the passport throughout its lifetime.
Ces inserts en matière synthétique sont assez souples et nécessitent d'être intégrés entre une page de couverture et une page de garde relativement plus rigides, afin de donner au livret passeport la tenue recherchée. Les inserts connus ont une épaisseur sensiblement uniforme, de l'ordre de 400 micromètres, assurant ainsi leur planéité, à l'exception de la charnière, moins épaisse, pour que le passeport reste fermé.  These synthetic inserts are quite flexible and need to be integrated between a cover page and a cover page relatively more rigid, to give the passport book the desired look. The known inserts have a substantially uniform thickness, of the order of 400 microns, thus ensuring their flatness, with the exception of the hinge, less thick, so that the passport remains closed.
Ces inserts, bien que slr¾pjes en apparence, sont des composants très techniques qui doivent satisfaire à un ensemble de critères parfois contradictoires.  These inserts, although apparently slr¾pjes, are very technical components that must satisfy a set of sometimes contradictory criteria.
Ainsi, le « papier » synthétique^ présente un coût relativement élevé, et une disponibilité assez aléatoire, ce' qui augmente le prix de revient des inserts à base de papier synthétique.  Thus, the synthetic "paper" has a relatively high cost, and a rather random availability, which increases the cost price of the inserts based on synthetic paper.
En outre, la souplesse intrinsèque des inserts en matière synthétique nécessite des pages de couverture assez épaisses (entre 11 et 13 points, un point équivalent à environ 25 micromètres), donc coûteuses. Par ailleurs, la structure homogène des inserts connus ne permet pas d'y dissimuler facilement des marques ou artifices de sécurité, car cela se ferait au détriment de la planéité de l'insert et du livret passeport. In addition, the intrinsic flexibility of the synthetic inserts requires cover pages quite thick (between 11 and 13 points, a point equivalent to about 25 micrometers), so expensive. Furthermore, the homogeneous structure of the known inserts does not allow to easily hide marks or security devices, because this would be to the detriment of the flatness of the insert and passport booklet.
En outre, les inserts connus pourvus d'une antenne gravée encapsulée entre deux feuilles de papier synthétique présentent un risque de corrosion de l'antenne métallique lorsqu'ils sont exposés à une atmosphère saline, comme dans le cas du test au brouillard salin, à savoir une solution saline à 5% de NaCI à 35 ° C pendant 24 heures.  In addition, the known inserts provided with an engraved antenna encapsulated between two sheets of synthetic paper present a risk of corrosion of the metal antenna when exposed to a saline atmosphere, as in the case of the salt spray test, to Namely a saline solution with 5% NaCl at 35 ° C for 24 hours.
On connaît de par le document WO 2006/000849 Al un insert pour livret passeport susceptible de contenir un peu de cellulose, mais cet insert n'est pas en mesure de remplir les exigences contradictoires de l'ICAO en matière de rigidité d'ensemble, souplesse de la zone de pliage, résistance aux agents extérieurs, et coût minimal.  WO 2006/000849 A1 discloses an insert for passport booklet likely to contain a little cellulose, but this insert is not able to meet the contradictory requirements of the ICAO in terms of overall rigidity, Flexibility of the bending zone, resistance to external agents, and minimal cost.
Buts de l'invention Goals of the invention
Un but général de l'invention est par conséquent de proposer une nouvelle conception d'insert pour livret passeport ou autre document de sécurité équivalent, qui soit dépourvu des inconvénients précités. A general object of the invention is therefore to propose a new insert design passport booklet or other equivalent security document, which has no aforementioned drawbacks.
Un but particulier de l'invention est de proposer un insert qui soit d'un coût moindre que les inserts connus, sans nuire à la résistance et au niveau de fiabilité élevé.  A particular object of the invention is to provide an insert which is of a lower cost than the known inserts, without harming the resistance and the high level of reliability.

Another object of the invention is to provide a more rigid insert than those using Teslin or Neobond, without impairing the flexibility required at the folding zone to ensure easy closure of the passport integrating the insert. A further object of the invention is to provide an insert having increased resistance to the salt spray test.
Résumé de l'invention Summary of the invention
Afin de répondre à l'ensemble de ces buts et exigences contradictoires, le principe de l'invention prévoit de proposer une structure d'insert multicouche, dont au moins l'une des couches est à base de cellulose, à savoir un papier cellulosique, l'ensemble des couches étant disposé selon un ordre déterminé. In order to meet all of these contradictory goals and requirements, the principle of the invention provides for providing a multilayer insert structure, at least one of which is based on cellulose, namely a cellulosic paper, all the layers being arranged in a predetermined order.
De préférence, une couche de papier à base de cellulose se trouve de part et d'autre de l'antenne radiofréquence de l'insert, lorsque l'insert est destiné à un passeport à fonctionnement sans contact. De cette manière, une couche essentielle de l'insert est en un matériau à très faible coût (le papier), et qui en outre de par sa rigidité intrinsèque, permet d'obtenir un passeport suffisamment rigide, même avec des pages de garde et de couverture plus fines et donc également moins chères.  Preferably, a cellulose-based paper layer is located on either side of the radiofrequency antenna of the insert, when the insert is intended for a non-contact operating passport. In this way, an essential layer of the insert is made of a very low-cost material (the paper), and which, moreover, by its intrinsic rigidity, makes it possible to obtain a sufficiently rigid passport, even with cover pages and Coverage thinner and therefore also cheaper.
Les couches de papier correspondent aux couches externes de l'insert, elles seront collées sur les pages adéquates du livret passeport, et ce collage sera particulièrement efficace car le papier est très compatible avec les colles acryliques habituellement utilisées.  The layers of paper correspond to the outer layers of the insert, they will be glued on the appropriate pages of the passport booklet, and this collage will be particularly effective because the paper is very compatible with the acrylic glue usually used.
Selon l'invention, l'insert comporte également, sous les couches externes de papier, au moins une couche d'un film polymère, et des couches d'adhésif interposées entre chaque couche de papier et la couche de film polymère adjacente, et entre l'antenne et les couches adjacentes à l'antenne, lorsque l'insert comporte une antenne.  According to the invention, the insert also comprises, under the outer layers of paper, at least one layer of a polymer film, and layers of adhesive interposed between each layer of paper and the layer of adjacent polymer film, and between the antenna and the layers adjacent to the antenna, when the insert comprises an antenna.
Afin de ne pas réduire la nécessaire souplesse du passeport au niveau de sa charnière, l'invention prévoit en outre que l'insert comporte, le long de sa zone de charnière, des perforations, par exemple en forme de nid d'abeille, permettant d'assouplir localement l'insert, sans nuire à sa rigidité par ailleurs.  In order not to reduce the necessary flexibility of the passport at its hinge, the invention further provides that the insert comprises, along its hinge zone, perforations, for example in the form of a honeycomb, allowing to loosen locally the insert, without harming its rigidity elsewhere.
L'invention a par conséquent pour objet un insert pour livret passeport, formé par un complexe multicouches comportant une antenne connectée à un module microélectronique permettant une communication par voie radiofréquence avec un lecteur distant, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte, de part et d'autre de l'antenne, dans l'ordre en partant de l'extérieur de l'insert, une couche de papier cellulosique, une couche d'adhésif, une couche de film polymère, et une couche d'adhésif. The subject of the invention is therefore an insert for passport booklet, formed by a multilayer complex comprising an antenna connected to a microelectronic module allowing communication by radio frequency with a remote reader, characterized in that it comprises, on either side of the antenna, in order from the outside of the insert, a layer of cellulosic paper, a layer of adhesive, a layer of polymer film, and a layer of adhesive.
La couche de papier cellulosique a une composition, notamment un pourcentage en cellulose élevé, typiquement supérieur à 90%, lui permettant d'avoir une rigidité supérieure à celle de la couche de matière polymère. The cellulosic paper layer has a composition, especially a high cellulose percentage, typically greater than 90%, allowing it to have a greater rigidity than that of the layer of polymeric material.
Avantageusement, l'insert comporte une zone de pliage, et la souplesse de cette zone de pliage est accrue par des perforations réalisées localement dans au moins l'une des couches de l'insert.  Advantageously, the insert comprises a folding zone, and the flexibility of this folding zone is increased by perforations made locally in at least one of the layers of the insert.
Dans un mode de réalisation, lesdites perforations sont réalisées uniquement dans la couche de papier cellulosique.  In one embodiment, said perforations are made solely in the cellulosic paper layer.
En variante, si davantage de souplesse est nécessaire dans la zone de pliage, lesdites perforations sont réalisées à travers des couches contigûes de papier cellulosique, d'adhésif, et de couche polymère.  Alternatively, if more flexibility is required in the folding zone, said perforations are made through contiguous layers of cellulosic paper, adhesive, and polymeric layer.
De préférence, afin d'assurer une souplesse optimale de la zone de pliage, la surface totale des perforations est de préférence comprise entre 50 % et 75 % de la surface totale de la zone perforée.  Preferably, in order to ensure optimum flexibility of the folding zone, the total area of the perforations is preferably between 50% and 75% of the total area of the perforated area.
De préférence, l'insert comporte un matériau de compensation d'épaisseur, disposé soit en périphérie de l'antenne, soit juxtaposé avec l'antenne, ce matériau étant apte à maintenir la planéité de l'insert sur l'intégralité de sa surface.  Preferably, the insert comprises a thickness compensation material disposed either on the periphery of the antenna or juxtaposed with the antenna, this material being able to maintain the flatness of the insert on its entire surface. .
L'utilisation d'un complexe multicouches permet de réaliser des perforations ou d'autres motifs de sécurité perceptibles au toucher, en-dehors de la zone de pliage.  The use of a multilayer complex allows perforations or other security reasons noticeable to the touch, outside the folding zone.
L'invention a également pour objet un passeport électronique, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte, entre une feuille de couverture et une feuille de garde, un insert tel que décrit plus haut.  The invention also relates to an electronic passport, characterized in that it comprises, between a cover sheet and a guard sheet, an insert as described above.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée et des dessins annexés dans lesquels :  Other features and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the detailed description and the accompanying drawings in which:
- la figure 1 illustre une vue en coupe transversale de l'insert selon l'invention, le long d'un trait de coupe passant par le module microélectronique de l'insert ;  - Figure 1 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the insert according to the invention, along a cutting line passing through the microelectronic module of the insert;
- la figure 2 illustre une vue en plan de l'insert de la figure 1. Description détaillée FIG. 2 illustrates a plan view of the insert of FIG. 1. detailed description
Comme représenté en figure 1, l'insert est destiné à être intégré entre la feuille de couverture et la feuille de garde d'un document sécurisé, par exemple d'un livret de passeport électronique. As shown in Figure 1, the insert is intended to be integrated between the cover sheet and the guard sheet of a secure document, for example an electronic passport booklet.
L'insert présente une structure multicouches assemblées par laminage. Une cavité est prévue pour l'intégration d'un module microélectronique 1 pourvu d'une puce (non représentée) reliée à une antenne 6. Mais dans un mode de réalisation spécifique, il peut s'agir d'un insert sans antenne, bien que dans le reste de la description, on considérera un insert pourvu d'une antenne.  The insert has a multilayer structure assembled by rolling. A cavity is provided for the integration of a microelectronic module 1 provided with a chip (not shown) connected to an antenna 6. But in a specific embodiment, it may be an insert without antenna, although that in the rest of the description, consider an insert provided with an antenna.
A la différence des inserts connus pour passeport, l'insert selon l'invention comporte une ou plusieurs couches d'un papier cellulosique, qui est un matériau très peu coûteux et disponible sans restrictions (fibres de cellulose à plus de 90 % ou mélange de fibres de cellulose avec un traitement optionnel, par exemple avec un agent imperméabilisant). Le papier conférera à l'insert sa rigidité, son aptitude à l'impression et au collage (notamment à l'aide de colles aqueuses, à solvant, thermo fusibles), son opacité, son toucher. Le papier va faciliter le collage de l'insert sur la couverture et les pages de garde du livret passeport. En effet, le fait que le support comporte une vraie couche papetière permet une meilleure compatibilité avec les colles acryliques en phase aqueuse utilisées pour le collage des pages de garde et des couvertures synthétiques comportant aussi une couche papetière. En outre, le papier va assurer l'imprimabilité des encres sur l'insert (possibilité d'impression de code barre).  Unlike the known passport inserts, the insert according to the invention comprises one or more layers of a cellulosic paper, which is a very inexpensive material and available without restrictions (more than 90% cellulose fibers or mixture of cellulose fibers with optional treatment, for example with a waterproofing agent). The paper will give the insert its rigidity, its ability to print and glue (including using aqueous adhesives, solvent, heat fuses), opacity, touch. The paper will facilitate the gluing of the insert on the cover and the cover pages of the passport booklet. Indeed, the fact that the support comprises a real paper layer allows better compatibility with aqueous acrylic glues used for gluing the cover sheets and synthetic covers also comprising a paper layer. In addition, the paper will ensure the printability of the inks on the insert (possibility of barcode printing).
En cas de pluralité de couches de papier, elles sont de préférence réparties de part et d'autre de l'âme centrale comportant l'antenne 6 qui est une antenne à spires métalliques gravées.  In the case of a plurality of layers of paper, they are preferably distributed on either side of the central core including the antenna 6 which is an antenna with engraved metal turns.
L'insert comporte en outre un ou plusieurs films polymères (polyesters aliphatiques et aromatiques, polyoléfines, poly acétate de vinyle et ses dérivés, polyamide....). Ces films garantiront à l'insert sa tenue mécanique, sa résistance à la déchirure, son aptitude au pliage, ses propriétés de barrière aux gaz et sa tenue dans les environnements humides (tropicaux), agressifs (salinité) et aux produits chimiques, conformément aux spécifications demandées dans la norme ICAO). Dans un mode de réalisation pratique, les couches 4 de matière polymère sont disposées directement sous les couches de papier externes, et ont une épaisseur comprise entre 10 et 40 micromètres, et la ou les couches de papier cellulosique 2 a (ont) une épaisseur comprise entre 40 et 150 micromètres. The insert further comprises one or more polymer films (aliphatic and aromatic polyesters, polyolefins, polyvinyl acetate and its derivatives, polyamide, etc.). These films will provide the insert with mechanical strength, tear resistance, bendability, gas barrier properties and withstand in humid (tropical), aggressive (salinity) and chemical environments, in accordance with specifications requested in the ICAO standard). In a practical embodiment, the layers 4 of polymeric material are arranged directly under the outer layers of paper, and have a thickness of between 10 and 40 micrometers, and the layer or layers of cellulosic paper 2 has a thickness of between 40 and 150 micrometers.
Les couches de papier cellulosique 2 et les couches polymères 4 sont assemblées par laminage à l'aide d'adhésifs 3,5 enduits sur une ou sur les deux faces des films polymères. Ces adhésifs, d'une épaisseur de l'ordre de 20-60 micromètres, assureront la cohésion du complexe et permettront de rendre le dispositif électronique relativement infalsifiable (indémontable). Ces adhésifs peuvent être thermoactivables (polyamide, polyuréthanne, polymères vinyliques...) ou sensibles à la pression (polymères acryliques, styrène et copolymères, caoutchoucs....). The cellulosic paper layers 2 and the polymer layers 4 are laminated together with adhesives 3.5 coated on one or both sides of the polymeric films. These adhesives, of a thickness of the order of 20-60 microns, will ensure the cohesion of the complex and will make the electronic device relatively unfalsifiable (unmountable). These adhesives can be heat-activatable (polyamide, polyurethane, vinyl polymers, etc.) or sensitive to pressure (acrylic polymers, styrene and copolymers, rubbers, etc.).
Le papier par sa propriété fibreuse est beaucoup plus rigide à épaisseur identique que des matières synthétiques ou hybrides (TESLIN, NEOBOND,...), ce qui permet l'utilisation de pages de couverture plus fines (9 points soit 220 micromètres) donc moins chères. En revanche, le surcroit de rigidité peut créer un problème au niveau de la charnière de pliage du passeport, celui-ci restant alors difficilement fermé.  Paper by its fibrous property is much more rigid to identical thickness than synthetic or hybrid materials (TESLIN, NEOBOND, ...), which allows the use of finer cover pages (9 points ie 220 micrometers), therefore less expensive. On the other hand, the increased stiffness can create a problem in the fold of the passport folding hinge, which then remains difficult to close.
Afin de remédier à cela, l'invention prévoit de réaliser dans une ou plusieurs couches de l'insert, au voisinage de la zone de pliage, des perforations 7.  To remedy this, the invention provides for producing in one or more layers of the insert, in the vicinity of the folding zone, perforations 7.
Ces perforations sont soit réalisées uniquement dans la ou les couches de papier, ce qui permet de les assouplir localement, soit à la fois dans une ou plusieurs couches de papier cellulosique, et dans les couches d'adhésif. Dans ce cas, l'adhésif va fluer dans les perforations lors de l'opération de laminage, assurant la planéité de l'ensemble, et renforçant la résistance à la délamination des couches. Afin de ne pas bloquer le fluage, ni l'antenne 6 ni la couche de compensation 8 ne s'étendent en face des perforations 7.  These perforations are either made only in the paper layer or layers, which allows them to be softened locally, either in one or more layers of cellulosic paper, and in the layers of adhesive. In this case, the adhesive will flow in the perforations during the rolling operation, ensuring the flatness of the assembly, and reinforcing the resistance to delamination of the layers. In order not to block the creep, neither the antenna 6 nor the compensation layer 8 extend in front of the perforations 7.
Afin d'augmenter encore la résistance à la délamination, les perforations 7 s'arrêtent à une certaine distance, par exemple 10 mm, du bord de l'insert.  In order to further increase the resistance to delamination, the perforations 7 stop at a certain distance, for example 10 mm, from the edge of the insert.
Les perforations 7 peuvent avoir des formes diverses, par exemple circulaires ou oblongues comme représenté en figure 2, ou encore en forme de nid d'abeille.  The perforations 7 may have various shapes, for example circular or oblong as shown in Figure 2, or in the form of a honeycomb.
Dans la zone pourvue de perforations, la surface totale des perforations est de préférence comprise entre 50 % et 75 % de la surface totale de la zone. In the area provided with perforations, the total area of the perforations is preferably between 50% and 75% of the total area of the zone.
De façon avantageuse, il est possible de profiter de la structure multicouches de l'insert pour réaliser des perforations 7 dans d'autres zones que la zone de pliage afin de former des marques de sécurité 9 qui resteront invisibles après assemblage de l'insert dans le passeport, mais perceptibles au toucher par les autorités de contrôle.  Advantageously, it is possible to take advantage of the multilayer structure of the insert to make perforations 7 in areas other than the fold zone in order to form safety marks 9 which will remain invisible after assembly of the insert in passport, but perceptible to the touch by the supervisory authorities.
Avantages de l'invention Advantages of the invention
En définitive, l'invention propose une conception nouvelle d'insert pour passeport, combinant à la fois la souplesse et la résistance mécanique des matériaux polymères, et la rigidité et le faible coût des papiers cellulosiques. Ultimately, the invention provides a novel design of passport insert, combining both the flexibility and strength of polymeric materials, and the stiffness and low cost of cellulosic papers.
L'approvisionnement des matières nécessaires (papier, film polymère, adhésifs) est beaucoup plus simple et moins coûteux que celui des papiers synthétiques, de sorte que le coût unitaire de l'insert selon l'invention est au moins deux fois moindre que celui des inserts connus de spécifications voisines.  Supply of the necessary materials (paper, polymer film, adhesives) is much simpler and less expensive than that of synthetic papers, so that the unit cost of the insert according to the invention is at least half that of the known inserts of neighboring specifications.
En outre, le procédé de fabrication permet d'intégrer aisément des marques de sécurité en-dehors de la zone de pliage.  In addition, the manufacturing method makes it easy to incorporate security marks outside the folding zone.
L'insert selon l'invention présente une tenue accrue en milieu humide ou solvanté. La présence du film polymère barrière permet de ne pas observer de piqûres de corrosion sur l'antenne métallique en milieu agressif. L'antenne reste intacte après le test au brouillard salin par exemple.  The insert according to the invention has an increased resistance in a humid or solvent medium. The presence of the barrier polymer film makes it possible not to observe pitting corrosion on the metal antenna in aggressive medium. The antenna remains intact after the salt spray test, for example.
En outre, l'insert selon l'invention est plus rigide que les inserts selon l'état de la technique. A couverture, feuilles du livret (grammage et épaisseur), page de garde (grammage et épaisseur) et procédé de façonnage des passeports équivalents, la flèche (ou déformation maximale) mesurée avec des passeports en position lecture sous une charge de 40N, est 1.5 à 1.8 fois plus faible dans le cas d'un passeport intégrant un inlay selon l'invention que pour un passeport intégrant un inlay à base de TESLIN. Or la flèche est inversement proportionnelle à la rigidité. Par conséquent, lors du test de flexion normalisé, le fait de moins déformer le passeport intégrant l'insert selon l'invention par rapport à un passeport intégrant un insert en TESLIN, permet de passer 4 fois plus de flexions (8 ICAO contre 2 ICAO), et d'utiliser des couvertures plus fines et donc moins chères. In addition, the insert according to the invention is more rigid than the inserts according to the state of the art. A cover, sheets of the booklet (grammage and thickness), cover page (grammage and thickness) and process of forming equivalent passports, the arrow (or maximum deformation) measured with passports in reading position under a load of 40N, is 1.5 1.8 times lower in the case of a passport incorporating an inlay according to the invention for a passport incorporating an inlay based on TESLIN. But the arrow is inversely proportional to rigidity. Therefore, during the standardized bending test, the fact of less deforming the passport integrating the insert according to the invention with respect to a passport incorporating an insert TESLIN, allows to spend 4 times more flexion (8 ICAO against 2 ICAO), and use more thin and therefore cheaper covers.
